Thanks for the helpful video. I'm gonna do this for my back window. One less thing to half to spend money on and one less thing to worry about failing in the future. A win-win for real! 👍
Would this work on a Chevy impala 2010? I just want to make sure I’m not getting screwed over by someone’s estimate. They also told me there was no way to keep it up permanently except tape or fix regulator.
All regulators work the same. Another easy way yo do it is to take the door panel out, push up the window and then put a piece of wood whatever size needed to hold the window.
Picking up a 1963 original Saturday and need to remove the 38 inch mower to get the cc into the Maverick bed. Your video is just what I needed. The and nice instruction.
Just saw this thing in a RU-vid video add a tradeshow just showing it not using it and looked around and then I also found your video so then I found a few videos of it being used and then I ended up here, and now I’ve got all the information, thanks I hope you’ve helped some people, I guess the biggest advantage to this thing is that it sits on a wheelbarrow and then it’s easy to just push that wherever you need to and dump it, if I was going to use this for a lot of wet work I’d probably put a drain in the bottom of the wheelbarrow something like 2 inches at least
Cub Cadet built there first mower in 1961, The Cub Cadet Original , fenders and lights and rear hitch were all accessories you could buy. And sometimes can be worth more then the little tractor itself can be worth.
You may find the year through the serial number which is stamped into the transmission casting on the right side by the filler plug. And you were close with the 'mule pulleys'. That arrangement is referred to as a 'Mule Hitch', so they would be mule hitch pulleys.
Just did this hack on my neighbors buick lacerne whose window just fell down and cable was jumbled. Cut cable and had to pull it several times from both ends to get desired tension but now its staying put. I used a countersunk finish washer to give more anchoring surface and it crushed around cable nicely, used thread lock as well. THANKS!
I recently bought one and find that even with the blades disengaged, the blades continue to spin. Is that just a matter of adjusting it properly ? Or is it common problem ?
@@honeybuzzard2843I was doing that for a while and every week or so the things would pop back off due to summer heat or storm or something. He's suggesting finding 2 suction cups and suctioning them to the bottom of the glass on the inside. Put them so that they rest on the plastic of the door to prevent the glass sliding down. But like I said it wasn't very effective for me
Was excited for this and went through the process, but mine's not working the same. When I put the cable through the regulator and pull on the cable, it pulls my window DOWN, not up. Am I missing a step, or are the '04 Grand Prix built differently? If anyone has any help, it would be much appreciated. Thanks
Don't get mad, great idea, but couldn't you just tightened the bolt with two nuts, remove wrench continue spinning with impact with deep socket on nut side no grinding of threads.
One of the objectives in designing this ballast was to keep it compact and out of the way. Adding an extension would have been like dragging an implement. If that were the case I would’ve just added a box, blade or something.
i think it is newer than a 61, the first year for the original. it may be a 52. the 61 had no fenders or headlights. my 61 is blessed with a hydraulic rear lift.
I believe fenders and lights were optional features. The lights were the same as used on some Farmall tractors and are next to impossible to find today and even if you do you may have to mortgage your house to buy them.
You saved me this morning! I couldn’t fix it like you did with the cable. I had to jam the window in tight. Best I could do in a tight. This 65 year old woman thanks you very much!
